Answer:

They must mix

37 pounds of the House Blend

3 pounds of the Kenya Blend.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let 'x' be House coffe and 'y' be Kenya Coffee. Then:

10.50x + 12.80y = 10.67(40)

Also, we knw that:

x + y = 40

Solving the system of equations above, we have that:

x ≈37.0435 ≈ 37 pounds

y ≈2.95652 ≈ 3 pounds

They must mix

37 pounds of the House Blend

3 pounds of the Kenya Blend.

A clothing store offers customers a holiday sale of 20% off the price of x items. A customer then has an additional 15% off coup
aleksandr82 [10.1K]

Finding the equivalent multiplier, it is found that the function for the final price is:

P(x) = 0.68x.

-------------------------------------------

  • There is a holiday sale of 20% off the price of x, thus 0.8x is paid, as 1 - 0.2 = 0.8.
  • Additionally, there is a coupon of 15% off, thus, 0.85 of 0.8x is paid.
  • The equivalent multiplier is:

0.85(0.8) = 0.68

  • Thus, the function for the final price is:

P(x) = 0.68x

The diagram shows 3 identical circles inside a rectangle.
Ilya [14]

Answer:

11700 mm²

Step-by-step explanation:

A rectangle is a quadrilateral with two equal, opposite and parallel sides. Each of the angles in a rectangle is 90°.

The horizontal distance of the rectangle = r + r + r + r = 4r

The vertical distance = r + h + r = 2r + h

Where h is the distance between the midpoint of the 2 up circles and the midpoint of the down circle.

Using Pythagoras:

 (2r)² = h² + r²

h² + r² = 4r²

h² = 3r²

h = √3r²

h = r√3

Vertical distance = 2r + h = 2r + r√3

Area of rectangle = vertical distance * horizontal distance

Area = 4r * (2r + r√3) = 8r² + 4r²√3 = 4r²(2 + √3)

Substituting:

Area = 4r²(2 + √3) = 4(28²)(2 + √3) = 11703.711 mm²

Area = 11700 mm² to 3 s.f
